ਪਉੜੀ ॥

paurree |

Pauree:

ਹਰਿ ਜੀਉ ਸਚਾ ਸਚੁ ਤੂ ਸਚੇ ਲੈਹਿ ਮਿਲਾਇ ॥

har jeeo sachaa sach too sache laihi milaae |

O Dear Lord, You are the Truest of the True. You blend those who are truthful into Your Own Being.

ਦੂਜੈ ਦੂਜੀ ਤਰਫ ਹੈ ਕੂੜਿ ਮਿਲੈ ਨ ਮਿਲਿਆ ਜਾਇ ॥

doojai doojee taraf hai koorr milai na miliaa jaae |

Those caught in duality are on the side of duality; entrenched in falsehood, they cannot merge into the Lord.

ਆਪੇ ਜੋੜਿ ਵਿਛੋੜਿਐ ਆਪੇ ਕੁਦਰਤਿ ਦੇਇ ਦਿਖਾਇ ॥

aape jorr vichhorriai aape kudarat dee dikhaae |

You Yourself unite, and You Yourself separate; You display Your Creative Omnipotence.

ਮੋਹੁ ਸੋਗੁ ਵਿਜੋਗੁ ਹੈ ਪੂਰਬਿ ਲਿਖਿਆ ਕਮਾਇ ॥

mohu sog vijog hai poorab likhiaa kamaae |

Attachment brings the sorrow of separation; the mortal acts in accordance with pre-ordained destiny.

ਹਉ ਬਲਿਹਾਰੀ ਤਿਨ ਕਉ ਜੋ ਹਰਿ ਚਰਣੀ ਰਹੈ ਲਿਵ ਲਾਇ ॥

hau balihaaree tin kau jo har charanee rahai liv laae |

I am a sacrifice to those who remain lovingly attached to the Lord's Feet.

ਜਿਉ ਜਲ ਮਹਿ ਕਮਲੁ ਅਲਿਪਤੁ ਹੈ ਐਸੀ ਬਣਤ ਬਣਾਇ ॥

jiau jal meh kamal alipat hai aisee banat banaae |

They are like the lotus which remains detached, floating upon the water.

ਸੇ ਸੁਖੀਏ ਸਦਾ ਸੋਹਣੇ ਜਿਨੑ ਵਿਚਹੁ ਆਪੁ ਗਵਾਇ ॥

se sukhee sadaa sohane jina vichahu aap gavaae |

They are peaceful and beautiful forever; they eradicate self-conceit from within.

ਤਿਨੑ ਸੋਗੁ ਵਿਜੋਗੁ ਕਦੇ ਨਹੀ ਜੋ ਹਰਿ ਕੈ ਅੰਕਿ ਸਮਾਇ ॥੭॥

tina sog vijog kade nahee jo har kai ank samaae |7|

They never suffer sorrow or separation; they are merged in the Being of the Lord. ||7||
